『Introduction to Korean Language and Literature』 is designed to help
readers interested in Korean language and literature gain a broad
understanding of Korea’s history and culture. It brings together selected
topics from a series of online lectures developed by scholars in the
Department of Korean Language and Literature at Seoul National University.

The linguistics section covers speech sounds, phonology, grammar, meaning,
language history, dialects, writing systems, Korean language education, and
language norms. The literature section explores the major genres and
scholarly developments of classical and modern Korean literature, along
with emerging topics such as comparative mythology, women’s literature,
film, and K-literature.

This book offers a systematic guide for readers encountering Korean
language and literature for the first time, as well as students and
researchers seeking a deeper understanding of Korean studies.
